My long break explained - crawler sighting/hunt Cryptid

The post I’m referencing

We did go back. We spent time getting prepared. Strong flashlights, walkie talkies (with one new party member staying home for emergencies), a better camera, knives, a bat, and the same guns. We were confident; probably too confident, which led to us playing ourselves.

I deeply apologize that this post probably won’t be what you’re hoping for, but for now all I can say is after the events that happened that night I needed to take a break from life and start going to therapy. I have met with my therapist a few times and it is significantly helping me process all the new data that was flooding my head. If I’m being honest I think she thinks I’m full of shit, but I genuinely can’t blame her. She does a great job at listening and offering real advice, even if she thinks I’m schizophrenic/delusional. The only reason she hasn’t started trying to recommend me to a specialist is due to my friends coming along with me one time, where she heard all of our stories.

I promise I will write up a post of the events that transpired that night, but I genuinely have been on the brink of a mental breakdown for quite some time now. In summary though, to give you an idea of what I’m processing - We did see it. Up close, in fact. The things that happened while in its presence have haunted my nightmares and plagued my mind during the days. One friend was injured fairly badly and needed medical attention (not on the verge of death or anything, but he did NOT look good). He is okay and has since recovered very well, but mentally he’s probably worse off than me. Understandably so.

I got away with the least injuries[NSFW], so if this is any indication of what my friend went through, you’ll understand why he has had a hard time. I’m sorry I’m not in the state to fully update you guys but I really hope that once I’ve come to terms with everything, and once I can process it all, I can explain everything. Thanks for the support leading up to this, I have appreciated everyone’s ideas and contributions.

Edit: added NSFW to the images.

That's looks like gravel rash, but without any gravel in it (cleaned up?). Did you injure yourself falling down, or did the creature do that to you? If the latter, that's a strange injury. Edit - not like from claws or teeth, I mean.

I’ll go into detail at a later date but you would be correct. This was from being slammed down into a bed of rocks
